Rotary Club honors February Student of the Month: Ciara Jayce Golliher

VERO BEACH — The Rotary Club of Orchid Island is pleased to announce that its February Student of the Month is Ciara Jayce Golliher of Sebastian River High School.

Ciara has achieved an outstanding scholastic record while assuming school leadership positions and distinguishing herself as a record-holding athlete.

She is enrolled in the rigorous International Baccalaureate (IB) program at Sebastian River High School. Despite the course challenges necessary to earn an IB degree, she has attained a 4.9 weighted grade point average and holds the distinction of being ranked number one in her graduating class.

While successfully completing the classes in the IB program, she is also actively involved in school organizations including the National Honor Society (serving as vice president), Yes I Can Club, Future Business Leaders of America, Debate Club, Masterminds and the math team.

Amazingly, she also finds time to compete as a top-ranked athlete. She is the captain of the school’s cross country team, where she holds the school record for the 5K run, and the track and field team, where she holds school records in the mile and two-mile runs.

Ciara credits her mother, Tauna Phillips, with being the person in her life who has given her the most positive guidance and advice.

“She encourages me to go above and beyond what I believe I can do and to do my best in everything I attempt,” Ciara said.

She plans to attend the University of Florida in the fall where she will major in either chemistry or biology for an undergraduate degree. Her long-term goal is to have a career in the medical field as an orthodontist.

We are proud to honor this stellar young woman as Student of the Month.
